Draft the CHANGELOG.md entry for the version you choose, then give the steps to ship it.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
Write the `CHANGELOG.md` entry for the version in the argument. The reader runs `nik` on their machine or the niksi action in CI, and skims: keep what they would notice, drop the rest. Without a version in the argument, ask for one and stop. The version scheme and alphas are in `docs/releasing.md`. ## Steps 1. Check that the repository is on `main`, up to date with `origin`, with a clean working tree. Otherwise, say what's off and stop. 2. List the commits since the previous release: `git log --format='%h %an %s' <previous>..HEAD`. For an alpha, the previous release is the newest tag, `git describe --tags --abbrev=0`. For a stable version, it is the newest stable tag, `git describe --tags --abbrev=0 --exclude='*-*'`: stable users never saw the alphas, so their entry covers the alphas' commits too. 3. Read each commit: `gh pr view <n> --json body` for a `(#n)` title, `git show --stat` otherwise. For a `renovate[bot]` commit, read only the title and `git show --stat`: its PR body quotes upstream release notes, which are not ours to repeat. Done when every commit sits in a bullet, is …

How to install
mdr add osrim/ski/start-release@sha256:bb8840ee9ba4b606The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261031.82a7a8d, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
